Ingredients
Instructions
Press the tofu between paper towels to remove excess moisture, then cube it, season, and simmer over medium-high heat until well browned, about 9 minutes.
Add the jalapeno, collard greens and bell pepper, cooking until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the black pepper and smoked paprika for 3 minutes.
Prepare the cornbread separately according to package directions.
Let the tofu simmer for about 5 minutes so the flavors meld.
Taste and adjust the seasoning.
Serve hot over the cornbread, garnished with fresh herbs.
